      <h3>Flux</h3>
      <p>
        Marty is an implementation of the <a href="http://facebook.github.io/flux/docs/overview.html">Flux architecture</a>. It defines a set of rules about how to manage your applications state. Facebook invented Flux to help them build client-side web applications.

      <h3>Declarative data fetching</h3>
      <p>
        Marty has a unique <a href="{% url /guides/fetching-state/index.html %}">fetch API</a> that allows you to declaratively define your components state requirements. It also helps you define what to do when waiting for that state or when an error occurs.

      <h3>Isomorphic</h3>
      <p>
        Marty makes it easy to build JavaScript applications that run as happily on the server as they do in the browser. Read our <a href="{% url /guides/isomorphism/index.html %}">guide on isomorphism</a> to learn more.
